Coating characterization was investigated X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), transmission electron microscopy(TEM), scanni electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS). The result shows that nano-FHA coated samp presents nano needle-like structure, which is oriented perpendicular to the surface of the substrate with denser and more unifo layers compared to the nano-CDHA coated sample. The nano-FHA coating shows smaller crystallite size(65 nm) compared to t nano-CDHA coating(95 nm); however, CDHA presents thicker layer(19 μm in thickness) compared to the nano-FHA(15 μm thickness). The corrosion behaviour determined by polarization, immersion and hydrogen evolution tests indicates that the nano-FH and nano-CDHA coatings significantly decrease corrosion rate and induce passivation. The nano-FHA and nano-CDHA coatings c accelerate the formation of bone-like apatite layer and significantly decrease the dissolution rate as compared to the uncoated M alloy. The nano-FHA coating provides effective protection to Mg alloy and presents the highest corrosion resistance. Therefore, t nano-FHA coating on Mg alloy is suggested as a great candidate for orthopaedic applications.展开更多

The nano HAP coating on Mg-2Zn scaffolds was prepared by the pulse electrodeposition method. The as-deposited scaffolds were then post-treated with alkaline solution to improve the biodegradation behavior and biocompatibility for implant applications. The microstructure and composition of scaffold and nano HAP coating, as well as their degradation and cytotoxicity behavior in simulated body fluid（SBF） were investigated. The post-treated coating is composed of needle-like HAP with the diameter less than 100 nm developed almost perpendicularly to the substrate, which exhibits a similar composition to natural bone. It is found that the products of immersion in SBF are identified to be HAP,（Ca,Mg）3（PO4）2 and Mg（OH）2. The bioactivity, biocompatibility and cell viabilities for the as-coated and post-treated scaffold extracts are higher than those for the uncoated scaffold. MG63 cells are found to adhere and proliferate on the surface of the as-coated and post-treated scaffolds, making it a promising choice for medical application. The results show that the pulse electrodeposition of nano HAP coating and alkaline treatment is a useful approach to improve the biodegradability and bioactivity of porous Mg-Zn scaffolds.展开更多
